Join the Howloween Costume Pawty at Chester Northgate

Dogs and their owners are invited to get into the Halloween spirit, with prizes up for grabs for the spookiest, funniest and most creative costumes. Prizes include fantastic bundles from Green and Wild’s and a premium dog grooming kit from Buddycare, while every pup entered into the parade will receive a free bag of spooky treats from Denzels and a Puppuccino.

Visitors can also browse a market offering dog treats, accessories and gifts.

Manchester & Cheshire Dogs’ Home will also be there, giving visitors the opportunity to meet the team and learn more about the charity’s work.

Following the success of Pooches of Pride in Chester this summer, the event marks Pup Culture’s return to the city with another opportunity for dogs and their owners to meet, explore the market and enjoy Exchange Square.
